Nourishing people, healing the ocean.
We provide high quality, affordable and truly sustainable protein ingredients from recovered seaweeds so that manufacturers can create the tastiest food products while caring for the ocean and the planet.
Mission
Our population is growing rapidly and traditional sources of nutrition have been overexploited and depleted to the point where it is imperative to explore and find new sources that will nourish us and the future generations to come without destroying the planet, but rather helping to balance ecosystems and biodiversity.
Vision
The ocean has vast untapped potential. Algae are an incredibly diverse and nutrient-rich resource that has been underutilised. While seaweed has been consumed in Asia and Europe for centuries, its commercial potential remains largely unexplored.
At Poseidona, we’re harnessing this potential by developing protein ingredients from seaweed sidestreams, such as those from the agar industry, and invasive algae—a solution that not only provides nourishment, but also helps restore marine ecosystems.
Our processing technology, which we’re currently in the process of patenting, enables us to produce high-quality ingredients from these resources.
Impact
Poseidona ingredients are nutritious, affordable and convenient for food product manufacturers and have a significantly reduced environmental impact.
Land-grown food ingredients generally have much higher water consumption and soil nutrient depletion, generate more greenhouse gas emissions, and require fertilisers, antibiotics, fungicides and pesticides.
In many cases they also represent a threat to biodiversity and are associated with deforestation due to monoculture.
At Poseidona, we combine a responsible blue economy with a circular economy, contributing to the reuse of resources while helping to restore marine ecosystems.
The Ocean
The overlooked giant that covers 71% of our planet and plays a critical role in our survival. It provides over 50% of the oxygen we breathe and keeps the Earth cool.
